Hilary Duff recording song written by Ed Sheeran

The singer and actress tells "MTV News" that she's in the process of recording a new album, and is set to put her voice on a song written by the Grammy-nominated Ed Sheeran. She says she's "really excited" about the Sheeran track, and that "it feels good" to be in the studio again.

It's been seven years since Hilary's last album Dignity. She adds she's eager to fill her fans in on her life over the past few years, which has included a marriage and separation from Mike Comrie and two-year-old baby boy Luca. Hilary says they can expect a single out "soon," with the album to follow sometime this fall.
